Kamila and Jakub knew the world they wanted - the greenery and hydrangeas of their venue, a soft palette, something elegant and a little romantic. I turned it into their whole stationery suite, from the invitations to the signage on the day, and then built the part I love most: a bilingual website that feels like the same wedding, and like no one but them.
Most couples pour their love into beautiful stationery, then reach for a website builder and get a generic template that looks nothing like it - and the signage on the day is often a third style again. Kamila and Jakub's guests were coming from Poland, the UK and beyond, so everything had to work in two languages too. The goal was one continuous world: the same frame, flowers and type on the invitation in a guest's hand, on the site on their phone, and on the easels at the venue - with a website practical enough to handle a whole weekend of logistics.
Invitations in Polish and English, wrapped in vellum and sealed with dried hydrangea, plus an info card with a QR code that opens the website.
The schedule board, the seating plan and the cocktail menu - the same frame and flowers, carried all the way to the venue.
The invitation's frame, its typeface and its hydrangeas, rebuilt for the screen - so the site reads as the next page of the card.
The weekend's timeline scrolls inside the invitation's own frame, as if the guest were turning the card in their hands.
A password-protected form that only asks what matters: 62 rules adapt it to each guest, their diet, their nights and up to five companions.
Every page and the RSVP in Polish and English - story, directions, rooms, dress code, wedding party and FAQ.
On the website the weekend's schedule doesn't sit in a table - it lives inside the invitation's frame. As you scroll, the frame stays put and the timeline moves through it, fading in at the top and out at the bottom, so reading the plan feels like holding the card.
Below is the same effect, rebuilt here with the real frame artwork and the day's actual plan. Scroll through it.

The Wedding Day
The English version of the site's schedule. The frame is the invitation's own artwork.
The RSVP sits behind a guest password printed on the info card, so only invited guests see it. Everything after that adapts: decline, and the form simply thanks you; accept, and it asks about the Friday BBQ, your diet, transport and rooms for each night - and offers to add another guest, up to five.
On the live site this took 62 conditional rules across a Polish and an English form. Try the English one - the password for this demo is below.

Shared with Kamila and Jakub's permission. Guests' names and the couple's contact details have been blurred or cropped out.
I ran the project as a single design-to-development flow, so nothing got lost in a handoff.
Starting from the physical invitation gave me the exact visual DNA - the soft botanical motifs, the elegant serif typography, and the sage-and-blush palette. I ensured these elements informed every pixel of the site, translating print constraints into a fluid, web-native layout.
Because I designed the whole suite, there was never a gap to bridge: the invitation, the info card, the signage and the website were drawn from one set of rules - one frame, one palette, one pair of typefaces - so each piece reinforces the others.
A wedding site has one primary job: helping guests without confusing them. I kept the UI light, calm, and highly legible. From the countdown timer to the detailed weekend schedule and interactive maps, the user journey is mapped so that finding critical details requires nothing more than a glance.
The couple needed to update their own details without calling a developer - so WordPress was the right tool, not the default one. But "WordPress" too often means bloated page-builders and a wall of plugins. I built the opposite.
To respect the couple's budget without sacrificing performance, building entirely from scratch wasn't the right fit. Instead, I used Kadence as a lightweight, block-based foundation. I then engineered a custom child theme on top of it to handle the heavy lifting: injecting bespoke typography, structural overrides, and custom GSAP code. It delivers the speed and precise control of a custom build, while remaining highly efficient and completely free of page-builder bloat.
A premium feel requires refined motion. I utilised GSAP to orchestrate the site's subtle animations. This ensures the unhurried, elegant feel holds up perfectly even on a spotty mobile connection at the venue, without ever slowing the page down.
A password-protected form in Polish and English, driven by 62 conditional rules. Instead of an overwhelming questionnaire it adapts as the guest answers - the Friday BBQ, diet, transport and rooms appear only after they confirm, and each extra guest gets their own questions.
Because guests access wedding sites on the go, the build was strictly mobile-first. Fluid layouts and hand-written media queries ensure that whether a guest checks the schedule on a desktop or a phone, they get a polished, uncompromised experience.
To seamlessly bridge the physical and digital, I generated a QR code woven directly into the printed invitation. It creates a 1:1, frictionless link between the card in a guest's hand and the digital hub on their phone.
From the very beginning, Aleksandra understood our vision straight away and turned it into something even more beautiful than we'd imagined. She didn't just design a website - she created a full visual concept that included our invitations and all the other stationery, and everything felt perfectly aligned and thoughtfully put together.
She was incredibly patient with us, the collaboration was well organised, and everything arrived ahead of schedule - which, in the middle of wedding planning, is priceless.
Tell me about your day, your palette, your people - and let's build a site your guests remember.
